Chapter 26



The physical version of the First Military Academy in Belfield is still under construction, but the StarNet version has released its admissions brochure today.

Age: 18-100

Specialties: No requirements

Gender: No limit

Education: No limit

Evolution direction: Unlimited

In short, the conditions are very broad, but for some important departments, such as the Mecha Department, Combat Department, and Command Department, there are requirements for the direction of evolution.

"What is evolutionary direction?" Jin Chu asked when he didn't understand.

"The evolutionary direction of the people of the empire is generally divided into four categories." Ye Ruisheng, who had an ordinary appearance, stood in the crowd with nothing special about him except his height. But as soon as he opened his mouth, the people around him couldn't help but quiet down and listen.

"One type is none, meaning they have no evolutionary direction. They are ordinary people, known as Type O people. They have average physical abilities and make up about four-fifths of the population."

"The second type is physical evolution, which refers to the strengthening of physical fitness. These individuals are naturally strong and resistant to blows and falls. With training, they often possess outstanding combat effectiveness. They are called Type A individuals. The military primarily consists of this type of people. Even if they don't meet military standards, they are capable of performing more dangerous but higher-paying jobs in real life."

"The third evolutionary direction is mental strength. These are called mental enhancers, or Type B people. They are rare, only about one-tenth the number of Type A people. They are generally specialized in various fields and are valuable even in the military. Those with mental strength exceeding Level A are called psychics. Once discovered, they are inevitably recruited into the military and become a valuable talent resource."

Jinchu was a bit confused. "You guys really like using letters." There were Type A, Type B, and even Grade A and Grade B, and they weren't afraid of getting them mixed up. "What about the fourth direction of evolution?"

Ye Ruisheng: "Those who have both physical and mental strength are type AB people. They are extremely rare, only one in a million."

Jinchu nodded, "Then which one should I be?"

Ye Ruisheng knew his abilities. Just based on his strength, he was definitely evolving into an A-type. As for his mental strength, he wasn't bad either. He said, "Spaceship piloting belongs to the mecha department. It's a relatively advanced and complex course that places more emphasis on the use of mental strength. It's best to have a mental strength of C level or above. However, this is on the Star Network, so the threshold is lower. A D level will suffice."

Someone waiting in line in front of them for enrollment scoffed, "Hey, wake up, you two! The direction of evolution is determined at birth. How can you change it just like that?"

There were also some people around laughing, but most of them did not mean any harm. They just thought that these were probably two guys who didn't know much and treated this as an exam. They just needed to get a certain score to be admitted.

What a pity, because the tone and demeanor of that person when he introduced the four major evolutionary directions concisely and clearly seemed very professional and convincing.

Ye Ruisheng was not angry. This was on Starnet, and no one knew each other. No matter what these people thought, he was saying this to Jin Chu.

Jin Chu also understood that if D-level mental power was enough, then there was no need to show off. He was just here to learn from others and had no intention of contributing to the human empire, so he had to keep a low profile.

However, he was also a little nervous, so he tugged at Ye Ruisheng and asked, "What is D-rank like?"

As they were talking, the line came to them.

Today is the first day of enrollment. There is a row of long tables in the military academy square, with NPC staff sitting behind them to deal with people's inquiries. If someone wants to sign up, they will be given a form and register on the spot.

Sitting behind the table in Jinchu's row was a pretty girl, smiling like a real person. "Hello, how can I help you?"

Jin Chu looked at Ye Ruisheng and said, "I want to apply for the mecha department." After a pause, he said in a serious tone, "Spacecraft operation major."

"Hello, the spacecraft operation profession has certain requirements for mental strength. Do you have a certificate for mental strength level D or above?" the little girl asked with a smile.

Does this require a certificate?

He looked at Ye Ruisheng, who answered for him: "No, let's test it on site."

"Okay." The little girl raised her hand, and a bucket of water, a small cup, and a large measuring cylinder appeared on the table.

"This is a rough test. Please use your mental power to control this cup and transfer water from the bucket to the graduated cylinder. If you can fill it to 1000 ml within one minute, you will have reached the D-level mental power level."

Jinchu looked at the small cup and then at the scale line on the measuring cylinder. It seemed that it would take ten full cups to reach the red 1000 ml line, right?

He looked around again and saw that at other tables, because people wanted to sign up for different majors, the on-site tests were also different. Some had to pour water like him, some were required to manipulate a rope to tie a knot in the air, some had to test complex mental arithmetic, and some had to disassemble and assemble weapons and time themselves.

Seeing that he was depressed, Ye Ruisheng encouraged him: "Pour ten glasses of water in one minute. It's not difficult. Don't be nervous."

Jin Chu whispered, "But I've never tried using mental power like this!"

He had never thought of using his mental power to manipulate an object out of thin air, okay? He used mental power to talk to his friends and sense changes in the surrounding environment.

He leaned in close, his expression conflicted. Ye Ruisheng smiled and said, "It's okay. It's just a small on-site test, not a formal exam. Even if you fail, you can practice later. When you succeed, you can line up again."

Is this possible?

Jin Chu was surprised, but he was relieved that it wasn't a one-game decision. He happily rolled up his sleeves and said, "Okay, let's give it a try!"

Don't underestimate the mental power of a thousand-year-old flower demon. Jin Chu's mental tentacles spread out and can almost cover the entire city. It's just that he is lazy. As a guy with countless hands and feet and a huge area released by his body, he is too lazy to use and does not need mental power. Those roots and branches can reach far away and help him understand the surrounding situation.

At this time, he separated a strand of mental power, circled the small cup, lifted it up tremblingly, put it into the bucket, filled a cup with water, and picked it up tremblingly, just like the old man with tremors, spilling countless water along the way, and only the bottom of the cup was left when it was poured into the measuring cylinder. He didn't know if there was 10 milliliters.

He was stunned, not quite satisfied with his performance. Some people around him even joined in the fun, enthusiastically suggesting to him, "You don't have a D-level yet, but you do have an E-level. You could enroll in a major that specializes in training your mental strength. After a year or two, you should be able to reach a D-level."

Jin Chu ignored those guys. He felt that the cup was not stable enough because he did not have enough mental power. The second time, he sent out more than a dozen mental tentacles to wrap the cup completely from top to bottom. This time, the cup was not shaking as much, and most of the water was left in the cup.

After that, each cup became more and more stable, and more and more water was left. At the end of one minute, he had transported 1000 ml of water and a little more.

Putting down the cup with a smile, the NPC lady said in an admiring tone, "Congratulations on passing the test. Please enter your citizen number here, and I will prepare introductory information on spaceship piloting for you."

Jinchu looked at Ye Ruisheng inquiringly. Ye Ruisheng nodded slightly, his lips moving slightly: "Don't worry, your identity information is absolutely safe."

Jinchu happily filled in the string of numbers.

The people around were in an uproar. He was really a D-level type B person. It was rare to see a spiritual evolver on the planet Belfield. They all stared at Jin Chu in surprise. Some people also expressed doubts: If he was really D-level, why was the level of the first cup so bad?

"What do you care? Can't I just be happy?"

"Hey, spaceship driving, real spaceship driving, I really want to learn it."

"Do you have spiritual power?"

"Type O people, miserable."

"Hey, so miserable? It's pretty good. Go look at other administrative planets and see which Type O person can enter the military academy."

"That's true. I think this military academy is great. Many courses and majors are open to Type O people. Our new Governor is really open-minded!"

"Even if it's not an O major, the threshold is much lower."

"Look, this first batch of students is going to fill up the school!"

While waiting for the introductory materials, Jin Chu pricked up his ears to listen to the people's discussions. He glanced at the calm and composed Ye Ruisheng and poked him with his finger: "They are talking about you."

Ye Ruisheng smiled and was about to speak when his laptop rang. He opened the new message and took a look. Jin Chu said, "Is there something wrong? If so, you can go first." He had been accompanying him for a long time and Jin Chu felt embarrassed for taking up so much of his time.

Seeing that he had adapted well and passed the test, Ye Ruisheng had nothing to worry about, so he transferred some money to his account. "I haven't sold the things you gave me yet. I'll pay you this first, and we'll deal with the rest later. I'm leaving now. If you need anything, please contact me directly through the optical computer."

Jinchu waved at him, and waited until he left before quietly opening his wallet. When he saw it, his eyes widened. There were so many "0"s. He counted them, one, two, three...

Seven in total, ten million credits?!

Jinchu had thought himself rich when he got tens of millions, and now he felt completely inflated. This money could not only be used on Starnet, but also in the real world. It turned out that trusting this person was the right thing to do!

Ye Ruisheng first returned to the Governor's Mansion, and then logged off in the Governor's Mansion.

After exiting the star network, he opened his eyes and saw the young man beside him. They both logged in from the mountain again this time, but they changed the top of a mountain. The previous one had been listed as a key research object and was heavily blocked.

Ye Ruisheng watched the boy quietly with his eyes closed for a long time, until a cat nearby meowed suspiciously. Ye Ruisheng said to the cat, "I'll bring you a lot of canned food tomorrow."

"Meow!" The cat was obviously very happy with the news, and condescendingly rubbed the man's hand with its tail.

"I'll go back first. You take good care of him." Ye Ruisheng walked some distance away and turned back to see the cat jumped onto the boy's shoulder, lying lazily and wagging its tail. The man and the cat were very harmonious and friendly, but compared to the entire mountain, it seemed so lonely in the dark night.

No place to live, no relatives, no friends, isolated from society...

I don't know if my decision to send him to military school was the right one.

In the Star Network, Jin Chu was grinning at the number in his wallet for a short while before he was dumbfounded by the thick stack of information handed to him by the NPC girl.

“This, this is…”

"This is the introductory material. Your citizenship information shows that you haven't been to school, so I've prepared basic education courses for you. These will be covered on the entrance exam. Good luck studying!"

The young lady had an expression that said, "I'm just so thoughtful, don't be too touched."

Jinchu turned a page and looked at the densely packed text, including an overview and exercises. It was enough to give him a headache to understand the meaning of each line of text. He was not a little flower demon who liked to study.

His expression cracked: "Another exam?"

"Yes, it's a very simple test that only tests some basic knowledge. However, if you fail the test, you will not be admitted." After all, spacecraft driving is a very advanced course, and you will not be able to keep up without solid basic knowledge.

"There's also a cultural exam, oh my god!"

“Isn’t this too unfriendly to the poor students?”

"Being a poor student is considered pretty good. I'm just a little better than an illiterate person. I can recognize words."

"They said there were no academic qualifications restrictions, but that was all a lie..."

People kept getting the review materials and gathering together to complain loudly. Jin Chu looked at those people and wanted to join in the wailing.

Aww, why do exams still exist?! What a terrifying human world!
